There are two countries in Asia that are particularly bizarre, one in South Korea and one in India, but the movies are particularly powerful. On June 8, 1999, during the 15th military exercise on the ROK-US sea, an emergency occurred in the Roksan's third submarine, and Major Lee Sen-seok was charged with murder and sentenced to death by firing the captain for preventing the captain from shooting the crew and shooting the captain.
But he did not die, but was pulled back from the ghost gate by the South Korean Navy. After recovering, he learned that he was in South Korea's top-secret nuclear weapons base, where nuclear submarines were being secretly developed, and everyone would spend the rest of their lives here. They have no names, only code names, Lee Ishik is Number 431, and his position is Director of Missiles. After taking office, he learned that before South Korea developed nuclear weapons, Japan had nuclear submarines and atomic bomb-building capabilities in 1996, but the United States and Japan joined forces to suppress South Korea. In December of that year, Russia paid off its debt to a fully attack submarine, which South Korea took the opportunity to convert into a nuclear submarine, naming it the Phantom, and began developing a nuclear weapons system. In the blink of an eye, they ushered in the first voyage, this trip they had to pass through Shoudao and Mariana Trench, for Japan, the captain was not worried, because the depth limit of the Phantom was much deeper than that of the Japanese submarine, as for the American submarine, even if it met on the high seas, the United States would mistakenly think that this was a Russian submarine that did not dare to act hastily. However, due to the captain's change of intended course, the deputy captain 202 was greatly dissatisfied, but the captain only perfunctorily did not ask questions on the grounds that he should not know.
During the advance, Li Qianshi found that the chef illegally hid photos, and according to the regulations, they could not inquire about each other's identities, let alone hide items related to their identities. However, instead of punishing the cook, he asked him to send two bowls of instant noodles to the 431 house at 10 p.m., just at this time, the captain passed by again, and then he called Li Qianshi to the office. The captain and Lee's father were once colleagues, but his father was later assassinated, and he believed that Lee's arrival on the Phantom was like his father's death, and it was all predestined. After saying this, he handed Li Qianshi a key and let Li Qianshi keep it absolutely secret.
It was 10 p.m., and Lee was suffering from the nightmare of his father's murder when the chef brought two bowls of instant noodles. He left one of the bowls for the cook to eat, and it was this subtle move that moved the often bullied grassroots soldier beyond words. Soon the deputy captain held a secret meeting behind the captain's back, and because a bomb had been found on the ship, they unanimously decided to take action. In the sonar room, a soldier holding an awl because of monotony and boredom, no matter how hard he tried to prick his hand, he could not pierce it, so angry that he could not do anything. The captain was also bored because the sonar did not notice any movement, so he handed over the supervision to the deputy captain and went to the fumigation room himself. Unexpectedly, within 20 minutes, the voice of the deputy captain was heard on the radio, saying that there had been a mutiny in the submarine, the captain had been killed, the mutiny had been suppressed, and the submarine immediately entered the first level of alert. As soon as the words fell, Li Qianshi quickly ran to the missile room, just happened to encounter 493, and when he asked, he learned that the deputy captain had taken over the entire ship and issued an order to prepare to launch the missile. Hearing this, Li Qianshi's brain was buzzing, and he immediately turned around and rushed into the captain's command room, until then the new captain told him that it was just a false alarm, saying that the outside of the submarine was not an enemy but a whale. When Li Qianshi wanted to examine the old captain's body, the captain told him bluntly that he had killed the old captain because the old captain had installed a self-detonation device on the ship, intending to let everyone die with the Ghost.
At the same time, he also told Lee that the last time they passed through the South China Sea, they encountered a Japanese submarine, the United States and Japan already knew about the Phantom, and the headquarters decided to destroy the submarine in order to destroy the evidence. What shocked him even more, however, was that the captain said that when they bought the submarine, they had secretly agreed with Russia to buy a number of nuclear warheads that could destroy Japan, and now they risked coming here to self-destruct, and both the United States and Japan had been informed. However, he did not intend to do so, because their country had suffered humiliation and dignity, not only once or twice, but had been coveted and invaded by Japan for hundreds of years, so he wanted to shame Japan before the snow. In this regard, Lee Chi-seok was emotional, saying that South Korea did not have the right to decide on nuclear weapons, and the captain did not give in, asking him who gave Japan the right to destroy South Korea? In a word, Li Qianshi was speechless. Just then, the submarine arrived at the intended launch site, and the captain immediately ordered the submarine to stop advancing and target Tokyo, okinawa, and major Japanese cities.
Everything is ready only to owe the East Wind, but unexpectedly, at the critical moment, Li Qianshi refused to hand over the key of the launch button even if he was held on the head with a gun. He handed Lee a photo, saying that he had found it from the old captain's room, and his father had also devoted himself to the submarine program and had the support of state secrets, but the Yankees knew that in order to prevent South Korea from possessing nuclear weapons, those who supported this plan assassinated his father and others, and the old captain was one of the murderers. In addition to this, he said, scum and humiliation are always repeated in history, and if we do not make up our minds to get rid of the United States, history will continue to repeat itself, endlessly. But no matter how much he persuaded, Lee believed that there were no nuclear warheads on the submarine at all, and that doing so would only cause South Korea to suffer retaliation and more casualties. As a result, Lee did not succeed in persuading them, and they encountered another crisis, a Japanese submarine was approaching them, only 2300 meters away. But when they were attacking at full speed, the Japanese submarine turned around again, and the captain was furious at the thought that it was a Japanese submarine that had come specifically to supervise them to self-destruct in the Pacific. When the two boats were 1500 meters apart, he ordered two torpedoes to be fired to destroy the Japanese submarine in one fell swoop. Just then a soldier reported that the key was on Chef 981, and he immediately sent someone to capture 981, but 981 swallowed the key in his stomach for the sake of loyalty. The captain was furious and planned to anesthetize the 981 and surgically remove the key. But at this time, large submarines appeared in the direction of 140 and detected them, but the anesthesia took 10 minutes, so he used the Japanese devils to start a war, despite Li Qianshi's obstruction and the doctor's hesitation, he himself opened the 981 and found the key from it.
Inside the house was Li Qianshi's heartbroken but powerless, and in the command room was the captain who inserted the key and prepared to launch the missile, but because the other submarine opened the torpedo launch hole, he had to turn to the 130 urgently, reverse full speed, and at the same time lift the missile firing state. The battle alarm inside the boat had just sounded, and the sonar room reported that there was another submarine at position 320, and behind it at position 130, it was close to 2000 meters. As a result, he just ordered the submarine to evade, the submarine in front fired two torpedoes, and worse, the submarine in the back also fired two torpedoes, 4 torpedoes were caught between the front and back, and he immediately ordered the submarine 130 to move at full speed. When the previous torpedoes were 800 meters apart, he ordered the submarine to quickly evade, and at the same time fired a smoke screen torpedo interference, and then the submarine turned to a large right angle, so that the torpedo was detonated, and the submarine trembled violently under the huge shock wave. Unexpectedly, the Phantom had just escaped, and another torpedo appeared in the direction of 320, only 400 meters away, and if it did not turn, it would be hit after 10 seconds. The crew was sweating profusely, but he ordered the direction to crash head-on into the opposing submarine. As a result, the other submarine suddenly turned, and then he also ordered the submarine to turn to the right, so that the two submarines passed each other, and the other submarine was hit by a torpedo.
When the Phantom reached an undersea canyon, the damage assessment of the submarine was carried out, the bunker fuel leaked, the missile launch port could not be opened for the time being, and it would take an hour to repair. In desperation, he ordered the Phantom to stop advancing and make all-out repairs, and for another submarine of the Japanese Self-Defense Force, they judged that the other party may have mistakenly believed that they had been buried at the bottom of the sea in the explosion just now, so when the other party did not find themselves, they hid and turned on the fishing mode, put the antenna upward to a depth of 150 meters, and then ordered the whole ship to remain quiet.
Sure enough, the SDF submarine walked over the Phantom and found no abnormality, and the antenna was stirred into the propeller and could not move in an instant. But at the same time as receiving this good news, he also received bad news that Li Qianshi had escaped. After understanding the maximum diving depth of the Japanese submarine of 300 meters, he ordered the crew to drag it to a depth of 600 meters, and at the same time ordered people to find Li Qianshi. After the water depth exceeded 300 meters, he broadcast the sound of the SDF submarine being squeezed by the water pressure to every crew member through the megaphone, and regarded the day as a day to wash away the shame, while excitedly telling Lee Qianshi that soon he could hear the sound of the Japanese mainland being crushed. Eventually, the SDF submarine plunged to the bottom of the sea, and a bright light appeared. Since the warehouse was still 20 minutes away from being repaired, he ordered the submarine to continue 7 nautical miles south, intending to fire missiles again. In the huge cabin, Li Qianshi pretended to be a search soldier, and after dodging other soldiers, he hid behind the body of the old captain in the refrigerated room. After sneaking into the old captain's house and finding the location of the self-detonating device from a pile of documents, and taking it with him after dismantling, he then called the captain to ask him to immediately turn off the missile system, otherwise he detonated the bomb to make the captain's dream disappear, and disappeared again.
But instead of frightening the captain, such a move provoked him to order the launch hatch to be opened immediately. Seeing that he could not stop it, Li Qianshi called the missile room again, pinning his last glimmer of hope on 432, who persuaded 432 not to defect, let alone to help torture and kill innocent Japanese people, and agreed to meet him in the 3rd furnace cabin. At the same time, because the cargo compartment was not completely repaired, as soon as the launch hatch was opened, the huge water pressure caused the furnace chamber to be dangerous again, not only the steam leaked, the pipe also began to break, and if the hatch was not closed, it was likely that the boat would be destroyed. In desperation, the captain decided to risk being discovered and rise to the depth of launch before launching. In the blink of an eye, all ten hatches were opened, and the data began to be imported into 10 missiles, and all of them were completed when there were 3 minutes left before the launch point. At this moment, 432 found Li Qianshi, but he did not come to discuss with Li Qianshi, but to put him to death, he did not think that there was anything wrong with destroying Japan, but Li Qianshi threatened everyone with bombs, which made him extremely disgusted. Unfortunately, he did not kill Li Qianshi, but was counterattacked by Li Qianshi and put him to death, until then Li Qianshi understood that a boat of people, only he did not want to destroy Japan.
In the control room, not only is the target locked to all of Japan, the password has been entered, and the first missile has entered the countdown to launch, and after 30 seconds, it will be launched sequentially. But what they didn't know was that Lee also activated the time bomb, and before the missile could be fired, the bomb exploded. In an instant, not only did the fire in the furnace room, but the sea water also began to be poured back, and several crew members died on the spot. When he came to the control room with a bomb in his arms and asked the captain to float to save everyone urgently, the captain asked him if he wanted us to ask our mortal enemy for forgiveness and escape. In this regard, Li Qianshi believes that the launch of a nuclear bomb will not only change nothing, but also make more people suffer retaliation. Unlike Li Qianshi, every member of the boat was ready to sacrifice for the country, and instead of pleasing the United States and Japan to let themselves be buried for the submarine, it was better to let Japan accompany them to the funeral, and henceforth raise their eyebrows. But the reality is as cruel as history, and what is even more cruel is that Lee Qianshi prevented him from destroying Japan, but he did not expect that the self-defense submarines that rushed to their aid had already fired two torpedoes at them. Upon hearing this news, the captain was heartbroken, and he said that we were not frightened by the torpedo, but were defeated by our own panic. It is also said that if you can't be strong, you have to bear bullying, our country has always been under shame and oppression, who dares to guarantee that history will not repeat itself, shame will not come again? The big nose of pride and the despicable Wokou have filled this country with a history of five thousand years full of blood and tears, and the hatred between nationalities is even more distant. In the face of the captain's grief and indignation, Li Qianshi still believed that the captain's words were all excuses. At the same time, it is also retorted that one person cannot change the world, and the rest will be left to those who survive, and if we bear it, they will no longer bear oppression. Hearing this, the crew committed suicide one after another, and the desperate captain also pulled the trigger in Li Qianshi's hand and committed suicide in a senseless stalemate. The plan to eventually destroy Japan was not only destroyed, but no one has known about it ever since.
In the movie, we see three kinds of people, one who is willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of Korea's strength; one who is well-known in Korea, who pretends to be patriotic but is willing to be an accomplice of the United States and Japan and abolishes martial arts; and a person who loves peace and does not want to involve innocent people. As south Korean hawks, they are not willing to be humiliated under the coercion of the United States and Japan, and they cannot forget the pain and suffering that Japan has brought to the Korean people by invading Korea for hundreds of years. In Lee's view, it is more important to endure humiliation than dignity, and in the eyes of South Korean public knowledge, committing to power is the right way, and in the eyes of peace lovers, the captain is an extremist, but in the eyes of those who are not willing to endure humiliation and oppression, they are not the founders of history. Many people think that South Korea is realistic, omnipotent in the movie, in fact, from the economic and technological point of view, South Korea's strength can not be underestimated. Although this film exhausts the reality of South Korea's helplessness, it also makes us have to ponder a question, the invaders do not want to repent, who can guarantee that history will not repeat itself, humiliation will not come again?
